""blatant censorship""
""With an autocrat, you cannot give an inch,""
""Jimmy, I stand with you and your staff 100%," Colbert added."
Stephen Colbert defended Jimmy Kimmel after ABC pulled Jimmy Kimmel Live! indefinitely following an FCC threat tied to Kimmel's comments about Charlie Kirk's death. Colbert labeled the suspension a "blatant censorship" and called the action the work of an "autocrat," explicitly naming Donald Trump. He dedicated his Late Show episode to Kimmel and his staff and stated, "Jimmy, I stand with you and your staff 100%." The indefinite pull occurred after FCC Chairman Brendan Carr threatened ABC. Colbert will lose his own late-night show next May; CBS called that cancellation a purely financial decision while critics tied it to Paramount's merger with Skydance.
